one of my favorite books of ALL time.....

is the collection of witty essays "Metropolitan Life" by Fran Lebowitz, she was the disco NYC era Dorothy Parker/Oscar Wilde.

I remember back when she was writing her column "I Cover The Waterfront" for Andy Warhol's Interview magazine (for back then ol' Andy was still with us) and every month I'd get my issue & go straight to her column....

I was thrilled this morning to get an email from the AFI Silver to find she'll be doing a talk there May 12th when they show the documentary on her by none other than Martin Scorcese. I am SO there!
